From Structure to Strategy: Solutions Maven Consulting Launches

Newly founded Solutions Maven Consulting is an interim practice management firm which leads dermatology practice owners, physicians, and administrators in structuring and managing their practice efficiently and effectively. Through their wide range of services, the company assists leaders in putting the right team in place and streamlining their operations, so they can focus on patient care.

With 15+ years of experience in healthcare, CEO Toni Durrance recognized the need for her services as she saw colleagues struggling with managing their practice. Throughout her career, her experience includes hospital outpatient clinic settings, corporate, and private practice. “A good practice manager is a vital piece in managing your practice effectively,” Durrance shared.

Durrance is adept at identifying the gaps in processes and building solutions in their place. Her experience in healthcare administration overseeing practices with multiple locations and 50+ team members lends to her abilities as a consultant. She holds a Bachelor’s degree in Health Administration from Montana State University and a Master’s degree in Health Administration from the University of Central Florida.

The company’s project-based services include:

• Practice Start-Ups: Complete set up of your dermatology practice from start to finish that includes operations, finance, revenue cycle, human resources, and marketing.
